Cropping intensification is a solution to ensure global food security amid the threats of climate change and variability. Crop models are used extensively to evaluate the performance of single crop for a particular year under future climate. However, very few literatures are available on the application of crop models to evaluate intensive cropping systems. The study attempts to address this issue by evaluating the impact of projected climate derived from 29 GCMs during four future scenarios (mid and end-century under RCP4.5 and RCP8.5) on the performance of rice-wheat-groundnut cropping sequence in Mohanpur, India, using the sequence analysis module of DSSAT. A marked reduction in crop duration was simulated for rice (4 to 17 days) and wheat (1 to 16 days) during all four future scenarios. On the contrary, the duration of groundnut increased by 1-4 days. Under elevated CO2 concentration, an increase in biomass was simulated for all three crops. During future periods under elevated CO2, the yield of rice tends to increase under all the future scenarios whereas wheat and groundnut could decrease the magnitude of yield reduction due to an increase in temperature. Rice was benefited due to the carry-over effect of residue from preceding groundnut and, hence, could sustain the yield on the long-term. The uncertainty in simulation due to the selection of GCMs was also quantified. The study provided a better understanding on how a cropping sequence responds to projected climate rather than a single crop in a sequence, which can be used to develop better adaptation strategies Not Available |
